ATL Standard

Atlanta United will host Toronto FC in a Saturday night clash at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. Atlanta, currently eighth in the Eastern Conference with 21 points, is three points behind Toronto, which sits at 24 points. The teams last met in March when Toronto secured a 2-0 victory at BMO Field.

Bartosz Slisz returns to Atlanta after representing Poland in the 2024 UEFA Euro. Derrick Etienne Jr., formerly of Atlanta United, will return to Mercedes-Benz Stadium as part of the visiting team.

The match is scheduled for June 29, 2024, with kickoff at 7:30 p.m. Fans can watch on MLS Season Pass via Apple TV or listen locally on 92.9 The Game (English) and La Mejor (Spanish). Real-time stats and live play-by-play will be available on the Matchday Hub page.

Historically, Atlanta has a record of 4-6-6 against Toronto. Recent encounters have been low-scoring, including a 2-0 win for Toronto earlier this season and two draws prior to that.

Atlanta aims to build on its recent road success where they have gone unbeaten in their last three away games against Inter Miami FC, D.C. United, and St. Louis CITY SC. However, they have not won at home since March. Meanwhile, Toronto is looking to reverse a downward trend as they are winless in their last five matches.

Key players to watch include Thiago Almada for Atlanta United and Federico Bernardeschi for Toronto FC. Almada recently became Atlanta's second-highest goal scorer after his decisive goal against D.C. United. Bernardeschi has contributed seven goals and five assists this season for Toronto.
